Razer Switchblade is an Awesome Portable Gaming Concept
January 6th, 2011
I am a big fan of Razer gaming gear for the computer going way back. The last thing I would have expected to see from Razer at CES was a concept for gaming that is not a controller, but rather a full portable PC for mobile gaming. The concept is called the Switchblade.
The Switchblade concept is a small device created in conjunction with Intel and Razer engineers that uses the Atom processor and Windows for PC gaming in a portable form factor. The device has multitouch screen, along with a tactile keyboard that dynamically adapts to the game you’re currently playing.
The Switchblade supports 3D graphics and HD video according to Razer and it looks really cool. I have no idea if this will ever leave the concept world and become something we can buy. If Intel worked on it with Razer, it may well get real some day.

With an Atom CPU it will be not really interesting to play games.
It seems that your Info is wrong. The Switchblade has a normal keyboard but all keys have like the Optimus keyboard a small LCD screen, which can be programmed.
Ah, that makes more sense. The top screen is a touchscreen, but the bottom would probably be a set of OLED keys like you said. Of course, it’s all just a concept anyway, so who knows if it’ll ever be produced.
Thanks for the clarification. I’ve gone ahead and corrected the post.
